Ikea has created the kitchen of 2025 - and there's no stove or refrigerator

Welcome to 2025. This is what your kitchen looks like.

Not sure what to do with that tomato that's about to go bad? Place it on IKEA's Table for Living to get a quick and easy recipe. The aim here is to reduce food waste.

All of the recipe information shows up on the table — leave your iPad on the couch.

For tiny apartment dwellers, the table eliminates the need for a stove. Hidden induction coils heat the inside of pots and pans rather than the surface to make the table amenable to working, cooking, or eating.

Meanwhile, The Modern Pantry takes the doors off of your refrigerator to keep your eyes on your food, so you know what you have on hand and won't overbuy.

Refrigerated food is stored in transparent containers that are temperature controlled via an induction-cooling technology that's embedded into the shelves.

This piece of fish is placed inside a container labeled "2 degrees Celsius." The shelf will keep it at that temperature until you're ready to use it.

The Mindful Water System encourages responsible water use. It has two sinks: one for toxic "black water" that goes out to the sewers and one for "grey water" that is reused in the dishwasher or to water the plants above the sink.

The Thoughtful Disposal System keeps us conscious of what we're throwing away. Trash is manually sorted, crushed, vacuum-sealed, and labeled for pick-up.
